Let me start off by saying that I pride myself in being ABSOLUTELY honest and straighforward when dealing on eBay. I've been jerked around before and HATE people who do that kind of thing. This is meant to be a laid back, no pressure sale of a car that I LOVE and am not particularly excited about selling...

Up for sale is my 2009 VW GTI. The car has been garaged for the last 2 years and is in excellent condition. I have always driven the car very carefully and have NEVER abused it in any way, as I do not believe in trashing beautifully designed machines, ha ha. It has barely been driven in the last year and a half, as I was able to walk or ride a bike to work. The car is mechanically sound and has nothing wrong with it other than a few MINOR cosmetic things, which I'll describe below.

Minor cosmetic flaws:

1. Right after I got it in 2010, like a jackass I backed into a pole in a parking lot at about 0.5 mph. As a result the driver side rear tail light cracked and the bumper and rear quarter panel were scuffed. Insurance covered the incident and a brand new light was installed and the body work was done by a professional. You would never know it happened.

2. There is a small crack in the driver-side side skirt, right behind the front wheel. This was there when I got the car and I never addressed it. Looks like someone removed the side skirt at one time and I'm guessing that is how it happened (see picture).

3. There are a couple of TINY paint chips (maybe 5 total) that I've covered with touch-up paint, but that are still slightly visible - barely a consideration.

4. I bumped the headlight switch with my knee getting into the car one time and the plastic around it has a crack that is barely noticeable (see pictures).

5. There is some light curb rash on the driver-side front wheel. This was from the previous owner.

6. There is a small scratch in the rear window tint. This happened last week from a surf board fin and the glass is fine.

A couple of things things that I've had to have fixed on the car:

1. I had an issue with the 3rd brake light (on the rear spoiler) last year where only half the LEDs in the light were coming on. I took it to a VW dealer and they replaced an $800.00 part in the computer that was putting a bad voltage through that light, along with the light itself. The whole thing was covered under the 5 year/50,000 mile warranty and the light has been fine since.

2. The "Check Engine" light came on at the beginning of this year, so I took it to the dealership again. There was an issue with a butterfly valve sticking in the intake manifold. They replaced the whole thing while performing the 40,000 mile maintenance. This was also covered under the 5 year/50,000 mile warranty.

A couple of things that have been added:

1. The car has super dark tint all the way around, and it was professionally done, so it looks awesome. I got pulled over for it immediately after buying the car, and was given a warning and told to have it removed. That was in Ohio, but in Virginia I've never been pulled over for it.

2. The car has the nice GTI rubber mats (the driver one is coming close to having a small hole worn through, but the rest are like new), as well as the VW "Gorilla-Gear" trunk protector mat. The original floor mats are included.

3. Less than 1500 miles ago I put Brembo (drilled, zinc-coated) rotors all around on the car, along with Hawk ceramic pads (a $700.00 investment). I was surprised at how much more responsive the brakes were, and the ceramic pads are quieter and generate less dust. These brakes look great and will stay that way for a long time.

4. I have two brand new Good Year Eagle GT All Season tires that will come with the car (see picture). I already have these tires on the front, but have not yet replaced the rears (Dunlop SP Sport 01 A/S) because they're such good tires ($210.00 a piece) and still have some life left in them.

5. I put the factory VW roof bars on it. They have a few scuffs here and there but are fully functional and look and work great.

That's pretty much it. Please feel free to call or message me anytime with questions (606-547-6565), and thanks for looking!

VW looking to MAN up, ditch Mercedes van deal

Wed, 16 Jan 2013

Unlike the US, the commercial truck market throughout the rest of the world is chocked full of competitors from many different automakers. Since 2006, Volkswagen has had a fullsize van called the Crafter that was a result of a partnership with Daimler AG and based on the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. This partnership is supposed to last through 2016, but Reuters is reporting that VW might be looking to end its relationship with Daimler and create its own van in cooperation with German truck and bus maker MAN.
The article says that VW AG has more than a 75-percent stake in MAN, which would essentially be keeping the new commercial vehicle in-house. Even if VW bolts, Daimler still has a deal worked out in the commercial truck industry between its subsidiary Mitsubishi Fuso and Renault-Nissan to supply the other with different trucks.

Volkswagen says goodbye to Eos, Routan in 2015 updates

Wed, 23 Jul 2014

Usually automakers announce changes to their lineup individually on a vehicle-by-vehicle basis, but sometimes it all comes at once - especially when the changes are ones we either expected or might not otherwise notice. That's the path Volkswagen has gone with changes to its US lineup for 2015.
The biggest change is what we already knew: that the new Golf arrives for the 2015 model year, bringing with it the new GTI, Golf R, e-Golf and Golf SportWagen (to replace the previous Jetta wagon). But there are some new details as well.
For starters, Volkswagen has finally confirmed that both the Eos and the Routan - both long rumored to be on their way out - will be exiting this year. The Eos hardtop convertible, pictured above, will linger for one last year, its Sport trim replaced by a new Final Edition with 18-inch wheels, two-tone leather interior and enhanced equipment.
